About this event
FestivalThe Toronto Comic Arts Festival (TCAF) is one of the largest independent comic arts festivals in the world.
Each year, TCAF welcomes 28,000+ visitors and 315+ artists from across Canada and around the world to our two-day celebration of the breadth and diversity of independent comics.
TCAF is unique in our commitment to accessibility. Unlike other large comic arts festivals in North America, TCAF has remained completely free to the public since our launch in 2003, and our programmers seek to spotlight emerging talent alongside established creators.
The free public festival runs May 8–9 at the Mattamy Athletic Centre. May 7 is separately scheduled for professional development. The 2027 daily public programme and hours have not yet been published.
